Dosha: Mixed
Concept: The same channels that sustain life can, when disturbed, become pathways for doṣic derangement—effects follow causes through established conduits.
Vedantic Theme: Niyati/hetu-phala (lawful causation): orderly processes yield orderly results; disturbance yields suffering.
Application: Protect channel integrity: avoid habits that vitiate doṣas (dietary excess, dehydration, suppression of urges); treat early to prevent proliferation into multiple variants.
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: shanta
